synaptic overload
grief relieved through
chemical intervention
despite contention

homogenized noise
comprised from a strive
to stay alive for
sake of refrain
of brain quake

candle lit
writ of sanity
to feel a sense of
somnambulance

just to accomplish
a brisk ritualistic
dance through knowledge

plow the fields of glowing rigor
I thought I could do this on my own
go figure
